IndiGo will lay off 10 per cent of its staff, the airline said on Monday, saying that the coronavirus pandemic has forced it to re-evaluate its "best-laid plans". Chief executive officer Ronojoy Dutta said IndiGo had "understood the gravity of the situation right at the start of this crisis". The layoffs by the country's top carrier comes amid months of restrictions imposed by the government to curb the COVID-19 outbreak, which has affected the civil aviation industry, hurt crude oil prices and forced businesses across industries to trim operations.
